Black pepper is a climbing plant that requires natural or artificial support to grow, as well as a tropical climate. Originally from the Malabar coast in India, it's cultivated in many countries, but Brazil and Vietnam remain the two largest producers. This sourcing explains the drop in prices.
Also present in Africa, black pepper grows mostly in Madagascar, on the south-east coast of the island.
